How to set up the attendance kiosk

What it's for

The attendance kiosk lets parents and staff check children in and out on a tablet at your center. Before you use it, you decide how people check in and whether a health screening runs first.

Where to find it

Settings → Attendance & Kiosk tab.

Step-by-step

1. Choose a check-in method

Under Check-in Method, pick one:

• QR Code — a parent or staff member scans with their phone.
• PIN Code — a 4-digit PIN entered on the kiosk tablet.
• Open Access — no authentication required.

Turn on Allow staff override PIN if you want staff to be able to check a child in when a parent forgets their PIN.

2. Set up health screening (optional)

Turn on Health Screening to require a health check before check-in.

• Temperature Check — choose who records it (Parent, Staff, or **Not

required), set the fever threshold, and turn on Block check-in if fever detected** to stop a child being checked in above that temperature.

• Wellness Questions — turn this on to ask a short set of health questions.
• Health screening always runs before check-in, whichever check-in method you chose.

3. Manage registered devices

Under Registered Kiosk Devices, you'll see every tablet or phone registered to your center — its name, branch, when it was registered, when it was last active and whether it's Online or Offline. Use Remove to unregister a device you no longer use.

4. Save

Click Save Settings (or Save Changes at the top) to apply your choices.

Tips & limits

• Registering a device happens on the device itself — see *How to check children in

and out at the kiosk*.

• The Attendance Audit at the bottom lists recent check-in and check-out events,

including any that were blocked by a fever or symptom.
